Find where to watch Cleveland Guardians on TV

Cleveland Guardians

The Cleveland Guardians have been entertaining local fans in the American League of the MLB since 1901, operating in the Central Division since 1994. Their transition into the Central Division in 1994 also saw the team move into a new stadium, playing at Progressive Field ever since. If you are wondering how to catch the Cleveland Guardians live on TV today, you are in the right place.

What Channel is the Guardians Game on Tonight?

Cleveland Guardians games are carried by the MLB Local Media, in the form of CleGuardians.TV, which launched in February 2025. This is a slightly unusual approach to local sports broadcasting, brought about by the bankruptcy of Diamond Sports Group in 2024, which previously carried the games. Local fans of the Guardians can subscribe to Cle Guardians TV via the MLB website and get access to every single Cleveland game without any blackout restrictions, which is a big bonus. For Cable TV users, games will be broadcast on Guardians TV via local sports networks, however, these have not yet been announced, as MLB is still negotiating contracts with cable networks.

For fans not worried about catching every single game, you can settle for just catching the nationally broadcasted games, which will be shown on the following channels:

• ESPN: Select nationally broadcast MLB games and Sunday Night Baseball
• TBS: Tuesday Night MLB games throughout the regular season.
• FOX: 20 Saturday late afternoon or evening games, and four Thursday night games
• MLB Network: 26 MLB Network Showcase games

How to Stream Guardians Games Online

The Cleveland Guardians are in the unique position of having their games carried directly by MLB.TV. This means fans can subscribe and stream every single game online without any blackout restrictions. There is also an option to double your subscription price to include the regular MLB.TV offering as well, which will open the doors to every other game from the MLB season.

With no blackout restrictions to worry about on Cle Guardians TV, there is no need to upgrade to a bigger TV package to include the Guardians’ nationally broadcasted games. However, if you do want to ensure you get those nationally broadcasted games for other teams, we would recommend the following packages.

• DirecTV Stream
• Fubo
• Hulu Live TV
